Is Measuring Cups dishwasher safe?
Sometimes — with care
Measuring cups are generally dishwasher safe, but it depends on the material.
Why
Glass and stainless steel measuring cups are typically dishwasher safe. Plastic measuring cups may warp or degrade in high heat, so hand washing is recommended for longevity. Printed markings can fade over time in the dishwasher.
How to wash it
Place glass or stainless steel cups on the top rack. For plastic cups, hand wash with mild soap and warm water to preserve markings and shape.
